14-Day Money-Back Guarantee
Not satisfied with LimeVPN Core? We'll refund your initial purchase within 14 days of your subscription start date. No free trial is offered.
1. 14-Day Money-Back Guarantee
LimeVPN offers a 14-day money-back guarantee on Core plan subscriptions only. If you are dissatisfied with our service for any reason during the first 14 days of your initial Core subscription, you are entitled to a complete refund of the amount paid for the Core plan.
The 14-day period begins on the date your initial subscription is activated, as recorded in our billing system. Refund requests must be submitted within this window.
You do not need to provide a reason to qualify for the 14-day money-back guarantee, though feedback is always welcome as it helps us improve.
2. How to Request a Refund
Refund requests can be submitted through any of the following channels:
- Email: [email protected] — include your account email address and the subject line "Refund Request"
- Live chat: Available on our website (bottom right corner)
- Contact form: limevpn.com/contact
Please include your account email address in all refund requests. You do not need to provide a reason, but if you're willing to share feedback, we'd appreciate it.
We will acknowledge your refund request within 24 hours and process it within 3–5 business days.
3. Refund Processing
3.1 Refund timeline
Once approved, refunds are processed within 3–5 business days from our side. However, the time for funds to appear in your account depends on your payment provider:
- Credit/debit cards: 5–10 business days after processing (varies by bank)
- PayPal: 3–5 business days
- Cryptocurrency: See Section 4.3 below
3.2 Refund method
Refunds are returned to the original payment method used for the purchase. We cannot issue refunds to a different payment method than the one used for the original transaction.
3.3 Subscription cancellation
When a refund is approved, your subscription will be cancelled and your account access will be terminated immediately upon refund processing. If you wish to continue using the Service after receiving a refund, you will need to create a new subscription.
4. Dedicated IP (Plus Plan) — Non-Refundable
LimeVPN Plus subscriptions, which include a dedicated IP address, are non-refundable. Dedicated IPs require individual provisioning and allocation of a unique IP address exclusively for your account. Due to the cost and resources involved in provisioning dedicated IPs, we cannot offer refunds on Plus plan purchases.
If you are unsure whether a dedicated IP is right for you, we recommend starting with the Core plan (which includes the 14-day money-back guarantee) and upgrading to Plus later.
5. No Free Trial
LimeVPN does not offer a free trial. The 14-day money-back guarantee on the Core plan serves as a risk-free way to evaluate the service. If the service does not meet your expectations within the first 14 days, you can request a full refund.
6. Exceptions and Limitations
6.1 Renewal payments
The 14-day money-back guarantee applies to your initial subscription purchase only. Subsequent renewal payments are not covered by the money-back guarantee.
To avoid unwanted renewals, cancel your subscription at least 24 hours before your renewal date. You can cancel through your account settings or by contacting support.
6.2 Terms of Service violations
Accounts that have violated our Terms of Service, particularly the Acceptable Use Policy (Section 6 of the ToS), are not eligible for refunds. This includes accounts terminated for fraudulent activity, abuse, illegal use, or creating multiple accounts to exploit the refund policy.
6.3 Cryptocurrency payments
Due to the irreversible nature of blockchain transactions, refunds for payments made with cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) are handled as credit to your LimeVPN account rather than as a return of cryptocurrency.
Account credit from cryptocurrency refunds can be applied to a future subscription. We are unable to send cryptocurrency back to a wallet address due to the volatility and transaction costs involved.
If you have strong objections to receiving account credit, contact support to discuss options — we handle cryptocurrency refunds on a case-by-case basis.
6.4 Promotional pricing
If you purchased a subscription during a promotional period at a discounted rate, refunds are calculated based on the amount actually paid, not the standard price. If you re-subscribe after a promotional refund, the promotional pricing may not be available again.
6.5 Account sharing or abuse
Creating multiple accounts to repeatedly claim the 14-day money-back guarantee is considered abuse and is grounds for account termination without refund.
7. Partial Refunds
We do not typically issue partial refunds for unused portions of a subscription period beyond the 14-day guarantee window. However, in exceptional circumstances (such as extended service outages directly attributable to LimeVPN that significantly impaired your use of the Service), we may issue pro-rated credits or refunds at our discretion.
If you believe exceptional circumstances apply, please contact our support team with details of the issue experienced.
8. Upgrade and Downgrade
If you upgrade from a shorter-term plan to a longer-term plan, the remaining credit from your current plan will be applied as a pro-rated discount toward the new plan.
Plan downgrades take effect at the next renewal date. No partial refunds are issued for downgrading during an active subscription period.
9. Chargebacks
We encourage you to contact our support team before initiating a chargeback with your bank. In most cases, we can resolve issues directly — often faster than a chargeback process.
Initiating a chargeback without first attempting resolution with us may result in account termination and potential restriction from future subscriptions. We maintain records of all refund requests and transactions to respond to chargeback disputes.
10. Contact for Refund Issues
If you have not received your refund within the expected timeframe, please:
- First, check with your bank or payment provider, as processing times vary
- If still unresolved after 10 business days, contact us at [email protected]
- Include your refund request ticket number (provided when you submitted the request)
We are committed to resolving all refund issues promptly and fairly. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we stand behind our service with this guarantee.
